FROU FROU LIST - S

Please
take notice: These films mostly contain lovely visions of bouffant skirts,
particularly of the 50's style, and MIGHT show peeks of petticoats. Very few
show full petti-views (these will be noted). We are also now adding films which
feature classic crinolines and petticoat as well. You might also review the
corsetfilm list locatedhere.

Many of the
corset-era productions show gowns and petticoats as well!

Any rating
comments obviously refer to the quality of the film vis-à-vis frou-frou

SAPPHIRE (Shots of red taffeta waist
slip that a murdered girl was wearing; you hear it rustle, handled by the
detective looking for forensic clues. Also, scenes in a nightclub -
upskirt views of girl dancer in blue and white paper nylon petti.) Review by David

SCHOOL FOR
SCOUNDRELS -- Nice views
of Miss Scott`s dress and frothy pettis at the tennis courts of
the tennis club,
and at dinner, wearing a wild silk or taffeta
full skirted dress. Review by Dave Barber

THE SECRET GARDEN
-- Little Miss O'Brien
wears pettis and full length frilly bloomers throughout most of the film.
This movie might be hard to catch now, with the release of the 1993
version. By the way, have you ever noticed that it is always the older
film versions of these classic stories that have the most luscious frills? Review by Pammie

THE SECRET OF MOONACRE --
Features an
interesting period gown with cage crinoline bustle on the
OUTSIDE.

SHAKE, RATTLE AND
ROCK ** Premium movie channel remake of Shake, Rattle & Rock.
(Wonderful scenes abound
in
this COLOR remake of this classic film! The dancing in the courtroom is a
standout. A lady in the courtroom tries to cover up the visible panties of
a dancer by adjusting the girl's petticoat when she is held over head by
her partner! Wow! Nice white, full petticoat. Another MUST!)

THE SOUND OF MUSIC -- The main highlight is
the dance in the gazebo when Miss Carr is lifted from bench to bench by her beau! Not a lot of
petticoat, but sweet nonetheless. But there is
more.
Thousands of poufies must have this movie. Even the puppets get in on the
act ! "Auf Wiedersehen Good Bye" is my favourite bit. Review by Dara Jane Stillclips

SPARE THE ROD --
British --
One of the teenage
students of a teacher tries to seduce him after the school dance. She is
dressed extremely 'en bouffant', and when she lies seductively on the bed,
we are treated to a view of the swirls of frilly cancan petticoats she is
wearing! There is also an exciting display of pettis as she goes up the
stairs to her apartment. Stillclips

SPLENDOR Ms. Robertson
wears a petti as outerwear to a party/dance--at the beginning of the
film. Review
by John
Ms. Robertson is seen
having sex with a boy through her wonderful petticoat, which is made of
pink net. Very flirty, sexy and hot! 4 stillclips

THE STEPFORD WIVES
(There
are a LOT of pettis to be seen in this movie. They all occur in the
first half hour or so, and they are not 'full' looks at pettis, but
there are many many pettis that show a bit under the hem of
a dress;
there are lots of views of the hidden bottom edge of a petti pushing the
hem of a dress out, and lots of colors of pettis to sneak peeks at.

The best scene is the Fourth of July party/picnic, which even includes a
square dance scene. During the square dance, they quickly show several
women sitting up above the dance floor [I think in a loft-like setting],
and one
of them has a very full yellow petti showing in all its splendor
as her skirt is pulled up over her knees.)

STRATEGIC AIR
COMMAND (Delightful
Ms. Allyson awaits pilot Jimmy Stewart in fabulous 1955 gowns, supported by
voluminous
petticoats, in this now-dated but still enjoyable U.S. Air Force
advocacy film.)

STRAWBERRY SUMMER

(Great
views of red tulle bouffant petticoats worn by several women
throughout; Julie plays Strawberry Queen for small town
Strawberry Festival in which she wears red prom-style frocks
and red petticoats. Towards the end of the film over 12” of
petticoat show below the hem of her carnival queen
frock...gorgeous!)

STRICTLY BALLROOM
-- Australian (Some
classic (older)
full skirted ballroom attire is a highlight. These are the
fuller, froufrou petticoats that you don’t see anymore! <sigh>.

STRIKE!
a/k/a "All I Wanna Do" -- A private girls school, and
private boys school, get together at a dance. Some 60's pettis, dresses
etc. with one girl exiting through a window near the end of the film,
dressed in a skirt showing red froufrou underneath.

THE STUPIDS (Peeks at some crinies,
little daughter and motherin a stupid movie!)
Yes, this is an insipid stupid movie, but the girl’s dresses and petticoats are
worth the rental on this one! Landy’s shortly dress and petticoat is a real
flirt. Whew!

SUBTERANO
(At the
beginning, Ms. Segura wears a futuristic clear plastic skirt
with a crowded petti underneath. Unfortunately,
she is killed
early on.)

SUMMER MAGIC -- The film is set at the turn of
the century, but looks more like 1963. As a result, it features some
dresses/petticoats which look more like that era. A cute song/dance in the
girl's bedroom, "Walk Feminine," is a standout!

SUMMERTIME
(a/k/a "Summer Madness") -- (There is a nice scene with
Kate strolling along the canal in Venice while wearing a bouffant dress.She falls into the water and comes out drenched, including her lovely
petticoats.)

The (French) caption of
the snapshot reads: "Inattention, combined
with an awkward move by youngster Gaitano Andiero, her guide (in
the screenplay) showing Venice, Italy round to her and ...splash!
Katharine Hepburn loses her balance and falls into the polluted
waters of the lagoon. Her
performance
in that movie was to bring her an Oscar nomination,
but her fall into the
waters would cause an eye illness
from which she would never recover. A very sad
story in the end."
